We Love The Outdoors At Llwyncrwn!
We are very lucky to have such beautiful grounds to work and learn in. We are very busy in the outdoors.

Enjoying the Spring Sunshine - Dosbarth Hawthorn have been planting the bulbs into the ground from their pots and Gardening Club have been sowing lobelia seeds to take home. They also found a butterfly out of hibernation and caddis fly larvae in the pond this week. Those little tubes of leaves are the nests they build!

Planting Sweetpeas in the Outdoor Classroom to take home from Gardening Club today! I think you'll agree we've worked hard to clear the beds since Autumn. We are looking forward to watching things grow. We can already see some flowers, onions and mint peeping through!
Gardening Club were amazed to find such big newts hiding in the weeds in the pond, and such little ones surviving the cold winter! We have enjoyed chitting potatoes this week ready for planting when the frost is no longer a threat, hopefully in 4 to 6 weeks. Also, we have spotted some lovely daffodil plants sprouting ready for flowering in time for saint David's Day!
Members of Gardening Club helped to find and identify the trees we have labelled in the school grounds after our class names. Mrs Jenner likes to keep an eye on them all.
